Chapter 426 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

Shantong Mansion, Shishi Street.

This place got its name because of two three-meter-high stone lions that fell from the sky one hundred and fifty years ago. It has always been a gathering place for dignitaries and noble families in Shantong Prefecture.

The largest family on Shishi Street today belongs to the Qian family. Not only is it one of the four great families in Shantong Prefecture, but Qian's children are involved in all important matters in the prefecture. The family is also devoutly devoted to Buddhism and has close ties with Dazhi Temple. It is rumored that Dazhi Temple borrowed ninety-nine of the finest golden nanmu pillars from the Qian family to build its main hall.

Less than an hour after the battle of Baizhi Mountain ended, a team of cavalry swept in like a bloody wave. This team of cavalry was in high spirits, holding high a flag with the word "Zhou" embroidered on it in gold thread, and white python patterns around the word "Zhou". They were Zhou Tieyi's personal guards.

"law."

As soon as A Da pulled the horse, the horse neighed like a whirlwind sweeping across the entire Shishi Street. The Qian family guards, who were already ready for action because of the earthquake, saw that the newcomers were coming with great momentum. On the one hand, they hurried to notify the host who was discussing matters in the mansion, and on the other hand, they stepped forward with their heads held high, trying to give the newcomers a rough ride.

But Ah Da didn't give him a chance at all. He raised the whip in his hand, and the terrifying force broke through the air and fell directly on the steward who came forward, knocking the steward with seventh-grade martial arts cultivation to the ground. Then he said loudly, "The Qian family of Shantong Prefecture has colluded with Dazhi Zen Temple and brought disaster to the country. On the order of Zhou Hou, the Great Summer Envoy, the Qian family is detained and sent back to the Shantong Prefecture Pacification Office to await trial. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"

After Ah Da finished speaking, fifty knights behind him shouted sternly, "Kill!"

Their blood and qi were connected, and the terrifying blood and qi cloud actually covered an area of ​​ten acres, condensing into a huge Bi'an dragon. Under A'da's control, the dragon roared to the sky, making the ten-mile-long street and the universe silent. What was even more terrifying was the Qian family mansion that was directly enveloped by the roars of the fifty riders. The sound entered the mansion along with the whistling wind, making the wind in the mansion carry an invisible blood color. The Wanjie Ningbingsha directly invaded the human body, making even the guards with martial arts feel sore all over, without a trace of strength. Only practitioners above the sixth rank could barely muster their own strength, but they were also frightened by this terrifying power, and could not exert even a few percent of their strength.

In the main hall of the Qian family, the Qian family members, young and old, who were discussing matters, heard the roar and suddenly jumped up like grasshoppers in autumn.

"What a disaster!"

"Dazhi Zen Temple has caused great harm to our Qian family!"

"Father, what should I do?"

"Don't worry. Isn't Zhou Tieyi planning to build a new factory in Shantong Mansion? He won't be able to run it well without our Qian family. The worst that can happen is that he will spend more money."

"Second uncle, I'm afraid he doesn't just want some money!"

······
The various branches of the Qian family were talking, which made the old master Qian, who was already in a state of panic, feel like his penis was throbbing and even felt like it was going to explode. However, he had experienced many ups and downs, and he repeatedly instructed, "Mr. Qin, go and notify the Zhao family, the Li family, and the Wang family, and ask them to speak for us because of the common blood relationship between the Shantong Mansion."

"A Ming, go find out what the current situation of the battle at Baizhi Mountain is like..."

At this point, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's best to find out the extent of Lord Zhou's injury!"

The horror of the Baizhi Mountain battlefield was naturally known to all the powerful families in Shantong Prefecture, but because it involved many first-grade and even holy forces to block the battlefield, even the families with third-grade combat power did not know the specific situation at the first time.

But according to Old Master Qian's idea, in such a big battle, even if Zhou Tieyi won, he would not be without injuries. Because Zhou Tieyi in his heyday had the example of destroying the dragon in Pingjin Ferry, the Qian family certainly did not dare to be so arrogant as to stroke the tiger's whiskers. But if Zhou Tieyi was seriously injured, don't blame them for having a lot of ideas.

"Acheng, take the other women out through the secret passage and get ready!"

The so-called preparation is naturally to prepare for the worst and preserve the Qian family's bloodline.

The three orders were issued one by one, and the noisy sound like flies in the entire hall of the Qian Mansion finally quieted down, and everyone started to do their work.

Old Master Qian led his strongest followers, opened the middle door, and went to delay Ada and the others to see if he could get some clues from their performance.

When the Qian family's main door opened, people from other wealthy families on Shishi Street also used the most primitive method. They put a ladder on the wall and used their eyes to spy on what was happening. It was not that they did not want to use magic, but because the terrifying Wanjie Ningbingsha of the fifty riders including Ah Da, combined with the true meaning of the Five Emperors, had completely interfered with all the magic on this street. Even if a fourth-rank cultivator cast a spell at home, the image in the water mirror would be blurry.

When Old Master Qian came out, he first looked around. Although he saw Ada and fifty other riders, and more guards from the Zhenfu Division's Zhushen Division gathering from afar, he did not see Zhou Tieyi, which made him couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The Qian family is one of the four major families in Shantong Prefecture and has a great relationship with the family. If Zhou Tieyi really wants to take action against the Qian family, he should at least show up in person. After all, Zhou Tieyi did not hesitate to humble himself for Bai Zhishan at that time, so there is no reason for him not to show up now.

Therefore, Zhou Tieyi's absence meant that he was either entangled with other things, or he was seriously injured in the recent battle and was in urgent need of recuperation. This gave the Qian family some room to breathe and maneuver.

"The old man of the Qian family respectfully welcomes the angel guards. Please ask the guards to tell Lord Zhou that my Qian family would never dare to have anything to do with the Dazhi Zen Temple. We just burn incense and worship Buddha on weekdays, just like ordinary people in Shantong Mansion."

Ah Da sneered, "Pass it on? Does your Qian family have that much face? Come on, put on shackles and handcuffs, and take the Qian family to the Pacification Division to await trial!" Behind Ah Da and the other fifty riders, the strong men from the God-Slaying Division hesitated for a moment, but still stepped forward with shackles and handcuffs. Looking at the gleaming shackles, and the blood-stained shackles that were specially made with filthy methods, once they were put on, they would be at the mercy of others.

"presumptuous!"

The young and old masters of the Qian family had never suffered such a great humiliation in their daily lives. You know, even if the governor of Taihang Mountain took office, he would be polite when entering the Qian family. What's more, once these shackles are put on, life and death will be out of their control!
Old Master Qian's face also turned red. If he was put in shackles and shackles in public today and led through the streets like a dog, their Qian family would really be removed from the four major surnames in Shantong Prefecture.

"You are such a cruel official, you have no manners! My Qian family has been in Shantong Prefecture for two hundred years, we cannot just let anyone take us away!"

Old Master Qian's expression froze. All he could do now was to take action first and capture these fifty cavalry guards before thinking of a solution.

After saying that, the two three-meter-tall stone lions in front of the Stone Lion Street suddenly shook their necks, and the stone powder fell off, revealing the golden mane inside. The two stone lions roared to the sky, then raised a golden flame cloud and pounced towards Ada and the other fifty riders.

One hundred years ago, the Qian family produced a third-grade creation of the Gongshu family. After his death, he used a secret method to leave behind the most essential stone lions of his own Taoism. These were not normally used, but were nourished by human luck and the earth's veins. They were used at critical moments. Each of them had combat power close to that of the third-grade and could not be resisted by ordinary people.

The stone lions came through the air, and the golden flames formed a long dragon, which went straight through one side of the street. Wherever it passed, the lush green trees instantly dried up and burned, and the air waves emptied the air, causing the high walls to crack and the bricks and tiles to turn into colored glaze.

Those warriors who were lying on the wall and spying with their eyesight felt their faces and eyes burning when they were slightly hit by the heat wave, and they wailed in pain.

Seeing two flaming lions rushing towards him, Ah Da took off a bracelet from his wrist that was dim and had a restrained glow, and then put it in the direction of the stone lions.

The bracelet was thrown into the air, and the primordial ancestral Qi was born without roots, containing everything. It was extremely terrifying, and the golden flame that could instantly burn gold and smelt iron encountered the primordial ancestral Qi. It was like a river merging into the sea. It seemed magnificent, but it was completely embraced and digested in silence without causing any waves.

The two flaming lions had their own spirits, and their eyes showed human-like fear, but protecting their master was an instinct engraved in their spirits, so one flaming lion risked its life to crash into the bracelet, while the other lion turned the flames under its feet, used the force in the air, stepped upwards, and went straight for Ada. Any secret treasure could be released by at least killing the person controlling it.

However, they underestimated this peerless divine weapon that was transformed from the primordial Qi, enlightened by the holy ways of the sun and the moon, and created in response to the cycle of life and death.

The round bracelet made a clear chirping sound, like a dragon, a phoenix, and an innocent child. The black and white colors appeared in the chaos, and then expanded. For a moment, it seemed that even time slowed down. Two vivid black and white yin and yang fish jumped out of the ring and followed the expanding black and white color to the necks of the two flaming lions. The next moment, the black and white chains were placed on the necks of the stone lions. The bracelet rotated in the opposite direction, and a terrifying attraction came from the bracelet mouth, carrying the power of the yin and yang, grabbing the two flaming lions and putting them into the ring.

"Woo, woo!"

Two consecutive lion roars were heard, with incomparable fear. The lions struggled against the power of the yin and yang. Behind them, the power of the earth veins surged, making the entire Shishi Street seem like a dragon and snake were hidden under the ground. The dragon and snake swung their bodies wildly, and the terrifying power gathered, causing the entire ten-mile-long street to shake, and countless houses began to collapse in the violent shaking.

The biggest difference between the upper three grades and the middle three grades is that the upper three grades already possess the orthodoxy, and the orthodoxy is the power of the masses. The two stone lions can have the strength of the third grade because of the Qian family's great power. They seized a rich earth vein here, and used the power of the earth vein to nourish it for a hundred years. They have already merged with the entire ten-mile long street. If it is just in terms of pure strength, wanting to wrestle with the two stone lions is like wrestling with the ten-mile long street. Of course, it is not something a middle-grade practitioner can resist.

But how can a ten-mile-long street compare to the Tai Chi Yin-Yang Bracelet, which was truly born out of the will of the earth and saved millions of ghosts in Taihang and Yinshan? At that time, the power of the combination of Yin and Yang was so great that the entire Great Wisdom Root Realm could not stop it through the power of Buddha's glass, so what could the power of a mere ten-mile earth vein do?
However, the spirit of the Tai Chi Yin-Yang bracelet was unwilling to destroy this ten-mile-long street, so the bracelet shook again, and a golden bridge shot out from the bracelet mouth, like a rainbow across the sky. At first glance, it was only three inches in size, but it was flying in the air, and it seemed to be boundless. The golden bridge was in the air, and did not fall directly. There was the energy of the mysterious earth veins below, and the boundless merits and countless yin virtues gathered to form a golden lotus that fell down, took root on the ground, and suppressed the shaking earth veins.

Golden lotus blossomed from one end of the street to the other, swaying in the wind under the bright sunlight, stretching for ten miles, pressing down the local ground veins so that people could not move!
Without the support of the earth veins and human luck, the two lions had no strength to resist under the black and white chains, and were put into the chaotic bracelet. The bracelet turned again, and the long bridge golden lotus dissipated, turned invisible again, and returned to Ada's hand.

Ah Dadu was shocked by the scene before him. Although his young master said that he could just throw the bracelet away if someone tried to stop him, the young master had never told him about the power of this bracelet. With this bracelet in hand, there would probably be few places in the world that he could not go.

So Ah Da was stunned for a moment or two before he turned around and prepared to order his subordinates to kill in a majestic manner.

But who would have thought that Old Master Qian would react faster than Ah Da? His eighty- or ninety-year-old bones were extremely flexible at this moment, and he fell to his knees on the ground with a plop. "Qian's sinner, wait for the angel's orders!"

Old Master Qian knelt down, and after hesitating for a moment, all the members of the Qian family, young and old, knelt down one after another. Although there were dozens of cultivators in the mansion and even a third-grade Buddhist relic, facing this Tai Chi Yin-Yang bracelet, the two hundred years of pride and strength of their Qian family seemed as vulnerable as paper.

At this time, Old Master Qian also reacted. The reason Zhou Tieyi didn't come was not because he was entangled with other things or was seriously injured, but because the Qian family was just a family that was not worthy of Zhou Tieyi coming in person. Having someone bring a bracelet was enough to suppress everything. If Zhou Tieyi came in person, he might really exterminate the entire family, leaving no one alive.

Seeing the Qian family kneel down so quickly, A Da hesitated for a moment. Actually, you could have resisted a little longer. I ate the two third-grade fruits from the young master, and was worried that there was no one to practice with and make merit. You kneeled down so easily, which made it difficult for me to make merit.

So he dismounted and angrily kicked Old Master Qian to the ground, "You spineless fellow! Weren't you very strong-willed just now? Come, tie him up and seal this mansion. Don't let anyone escape!"

The battle in Shishi Street was easier to investigate than the earth-shattering battle in Baizhi Mountain. This was also the strength that Zhou Tieyi really wanted to show to the Shantongfu family. Otherwise, their rank would be too high and it would be difficult for them to judge the strength.

Therefore, within half an hour after the battle on Shishi Street ended, apart from the busy mining area on Baizhi Mountain that was being repaired, all the heads of the remaining well-known families in Shantong Prefecture came in person. In addition, the well-known families around Taihang Mountain also rushed here quickly by various means, and they all stood quietly in front of a small courtyard, waiting to be ordered.
